STREET FAIR DRAWS A CROWD
Adam County Prosd of the Sboirlnc
f the Frnlte ef the
Boll.
HASTINGS, Neb.. Oct. 7. (Special Tel
egram.) Fine weather and a large crowd
of visitors assisted In making the second
day of Hastings' street fair and carnival a
Crest success. At an early hour thla morn
ing visitors began arriving in the city and
they continued to pour In on every train.
They were kept busy moving about the
streets, taking in the free attractions and
doing the Midway part of attractions. One
of the principal attractions on the grounds
la the agricultural and fruit exhibit from
Adams county. Those having this matter in
charge say it la aa fine an exhibit of grain,
vegetables and fruit as was even seen at
the state fair. Among the exhibits are
talks of corn fifteen feet high, squashes
as large as washtubs and apples as big aa
cocoanuts.
The action of the ministers Isst night In
cleaning out the gambling houses caused
much speculation today In regard to their
feelings toward the Midway attractions, but
nearly all the prominent ministers of this
el'y were seen tonight by the correspondent
and they gave It out that it was not their
intention to Interfere In any way with the
treet fair concessions so long as they con
tinue to be conducted : In the manner In
which they were yesterday and today. The
fair certainly Is a great success In every
respect In fact. It is far ahead of what
had hen antl'dnated aven hv the maoaa-ara
of the carnival.
It Is thought that tomorrow will be about
the biggest day of the week, as the much
talked of flower parade Is scheduled to take
plitre at 2:80 In the afternoon. The fact
that the namto of the queen and her maids
bae been kept profound secret has caused
more than ordinary interest to be mani
fested by the publla In general.
GAMBLING DEVICES LOADED
Flayer Has Ho t'baace te Wis on
the Tables Captered at
Haatlaa;s.
HA8TINOS. Neb., Oct. 7. (Special Tele
gram.) The ministers of Hastings scored
another point besides their success In hav
ing all the gambling houses closed, as
their work haa resulted In the removal of
all nlckel-ln-the-slot macblnea, which have
been running unmolested for many months.
But the greatest comfort tho members of
the ministry seem to get Is from the fact
that all the crap tables they bsd con
fiscated were loaded. The gaming tablea
raptured last night were taken apart to
day in the courthouse by the detectives
and one tablo contained atxteen concealed
electric batteries and a big magnetic plate,
while another one had twenty electric bat
teries concealed, which had connection to
a large centerpiece. The dice were also
thoroughly examined and were found to
be loaded in such a manner that when
thrown upon these tables, charged with
electricity, they could be mads to turn
up certain points at will. The tables con
taining the batteries were photographed
with everything exposed and will be pre
served for evidenre.

LINCOLN. Oct. 7. (Special.) Attor
neys Interested In the litigation In the
district court over the proceeds of a 12,000
insurance policy on the life of W. H. H.
Rader, a prominent Mason who died Isat
summer, have raised the novel and Inter
esting question whether an affianced woman
has an Insurable interest In the life of her
bethrothed.
There are three parties to the contro
versy, the divorced wife of Rader, his
flsncee and his estate.. The policy ran to
"Kate Rader, wife." Ten days before Ra
der's death she secured a divorce from him
and married again shortly. He waa nursed
on his deathbed by Miss Ann M. Shrlner,
to whom he became engaged and In whosa
favor he ordered the policy changed. Tula
last request had not been carried out at
the time of his death. His estate claims
that neither woman haa any right to the
avails of the policy. Inasmuch ae when
Mrs. Rader secured her divorce she for
faited all rights she had, the policy having
been Issued to her on the faith of her as
his wife, and when she voluntarily aband
oned that position she Imperilled her
chances of recovery upon hie policy. It
also denies the right of Miss Shrlner, claim
ing that abe had no Insurable Interest, any
more than the divorced wife could have.
Created a Scene.
Mrs. Archibald Lewis created a sensa
tional scene in the court house corridor
this morning by pouncing upon her husband,
a member of the panel ol Jurymen, and de
manding to know where toe had spent the
night. She waa about twice hla size and
after shsklng him f ercely half dragged him
down a flight of stairs, demanding all the
while an explanation the man had no chance
to vouchsafe.
Lewis finally called for the sheriff to pro
tect him, as he had duties to perform at
once In the court room. The sheriff rescued
him from the angry woman' clutches, but
she followed him into the court house and
ail the morning sat with arms folded.
watching his every movement.
She Informed the court officials that she
waa willing to have her husband serve on

the opportunity of his hen-pecked life to
make a night of It elsewhere.
A Raah of Divorces.
Six divorces were granted this morning
by Judge Frost and four new petition
were filed within the same period.
Judge Froat took occasion at the con-.
elusion of the hearing to speak his mind
freely upon the divorce 'question. He said
that It waa patent to him that the pa
tlenra of the court was being dally abused,
that men and women would come before
blm and deliberately keep bock facts that
the court was entitled to know. None of
them ever tell or can be made to tell what
caused their trouble, but all are able to
get up a story that Justifies a separation, so
for as they themselves are concerned, but
which on public grounds might well be
denied. ... , ' ,
In Supreme Court.
Probably the largest aaaembly of attor

held simultaneously In four rooms on the

CATARRH OF THE STOMACH.
A Pleasant, Simple, but Safd and
Effectual Cure for It.
Catarrh of the stomach has long been
considered the next thing to Incurable.
The usual symptoms are a full or bloating
sensation after eating, accompanied some
times with sour or watery risings, a forma
tion of gase. causing pressure on the heart
and lungs and difficult breathing, head
aches, fickle appetite, nervousness and a
general played out, languid feeling.
There la often a foul taste in the mouth,
coatod tongue and if the Interior of the
stomach could be seen It would show a
slimy. Inflamed condition.
The cure for this common and obstinate
trouble la found In a treatment which
causes the food to be readily, thoroughly
digested before It baa time to ferment and
Irritate the delicate mucous surfaces of
the stomach. To secure a prompt and
healthy digestion is the one uecesaary thing
to do, and when normal dlgeation is se
cured the catarrhal condition will have dis
appeared.
According to Dr. Harlanson the safest
and best treatment Is to use after each
meal a tablet, composed of Diastase, Asep
tic Pepsin, a little Nux, Golden Seal and
fruit acids. Theae (ablets csn now be found
at all drug stores under the name of Stu
art a Dyspepsia Tablets, and not being a
patent medicine can be used with perfect
safety and assurance that healthy appetite
and thorough digestion will follow their
regular use after metis.
Mr. R. 8. Workman, Chicago, 111., writes
"Catarrh Is a local condition rtaultJng from
a neglected cold In the head, whereby the
lining membrane' of the nose becomes In
flamed and the polaonous discharge there
from passing backward Into the throat
reaches the stomach, this producing catarrh
of ths stomach. Medical authorities pre
scribed for me foi 'hree years for catarrh
of stomach without cure, but today I am
the happieet of men after using only one
box of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. I can
not find appropriate words to express my
good feeling. I have found flesh, appetite
and sound rest from their use."
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the safest
preparation as well as the simplest and
most convenient remedy for any form of
indigestion, catarrh of stomach, bilious
ness, sour stomach, heartburn and bloating
after meala.

COLVMBI S. Neb., Oct. 7. (Special Tele

sentative women are in attendance at the
eighth annual convention of the Nebraska
Federation of Woman's Clubs, which opened
here this afternoon, fifty of the ninety-nine
clubs affiliated In the organisation being
now represented. There is a general dis

tertainment of delegates and visitor! alike.
The general revision of the constitution,
the chief provision of which Is for a bien
nial Instead of an annual meeting, is the
Issue of the convention and the council of
presidents held this morning was devoted
largely to discussion of the feasibility of
the plan, which is so far from meeting
with general approval that It likely will
not receive the recommendation of that
body.
It was decided by this council to recom
mend to the convention the establishment
of a club periodical, to be sent free to
members of the Federation and to be sup
ported by the sale of advertising space.
Mrs. Draper Smith of Omaha, state presi
dent, called the convention to order at 1
o'clock. Mayor Dickinson and Mrs. Bettle
C. Gerrard, president of the local club, ex
tending cordial welcome on behalf of Co

The annual address of the president fol

Los Angeles biennial and a repetition of
tho suggestions embodied In her report In
the year book. Reports of officers, chair
men of standing committee and of clubs
occupied the remainder of the session.
The household economic program was
presented in the evening, Mr. Harriet Mc-
Murphy of Omaha presiding. Miss Savage's
talk on the pure food laws of Nebraska was
one of It features. The work of the State
Library commission waa later presented by

CATARRH IS THE
OF MOST KIDNEY DISEASES
Pc-ru-iiQ Cures Catnrrh.
Xs. SAMUEL RusT
Samuel R. Sprecher, Junior Beadle Court Angelina, 8422 I. O. O. F., 205 New
High St., Los Angeles, Cal., write:
"1 came here a few years a;;o suffcrlnn with catarrh of the kidneys,
iu search of health. I thought the climate would cure me but found 1
was mistaken, but what the climate could not de fjruna could and did
do, Sevjn weeks' trial convinced me that 1 had the right medicine and
1 was then a well man. 1 kiww of at leat twenty friends and member
of the lodge to which 1 belong who hare been cured of catarrh, bladder
and kidney trouble through the us of Peruna, and it has a host of friend
in this city." Samuel R. Sprecher.
Catarrh of the Kidneys a Common
Disease Kidney Trouble Often Fell
to be Regarded aa Catarrh By Pby
lelan. Catarrh of the kidneys Is very common
Indeed. It le a pity this fact Is not bettor
known to the physicians as well aa the
people.
People have kidney disease. They take
some diuretic, hoping to get better. They
never once think of the catarrh. Kidney
disease and catarrh are seldom associated
In the minds of the people, and alas, It Is
not very often associated In the minds of
the physicians. Too few physicians recog
nize catarrh of the kidneys. They doctor
for something else. They try thla remedy
and that remedy. The trouble may be ca
tarrh all the time.' A few bottles of Pe
runa would cure them.
Pe-rn-na Removes the Cnose of the
Kidney Trouble.
Peruna strikes at the very center of the
difficulty, by eradicating the catarrh from
the kidneys. Catarrh 1 the cause of kid
ney difficulty. Remove the cause and you
remove the effect. With unerring accu
racy Peruna goes right to the apot. The
kldneya ar soon doing their work with
perfect regularity.
Thousand of Testimonial.
Thousands of testimonials from people
wno nave had kidney disease which had
gone Deyona me control or the physician,
are received by Dr. Hartman every year,
giving Peruna the whole praise for mar-
velous cures.

I'realdent l.onlalaaa Commercial t'lab
Hon. William Watson Washburn, Presi
dent of the Louisiana Commercial club and
a very well known man of New Orleans,
La., write from 637 Canal street:
"I am satisfied that there Is not a finer
medicine placed before the publla today
than I'cruna. I have been troubled for
nearly twelve yeare with kidney and liver
trouble, and at times I have been a pretty
alck man unable to attend to my duties.
"I had about made up my mind that nn
medicine' could help me when one of your
booklets was brought to my office which I
read in a leisure hour. I then decided to
give Peruna a trial and found that I had
at last secured the right medicine for me.
"For two months I used It faithfully and
then felt so well that 1 waa like a young
man once more. Thla was over a year ago
and I have not had any trouble alnce.
"Although I am In the seventies, I
feel better and more active than" I did
thirty yeare ago." W. W. Washburn.
If you do not derive prompt and sstis
factory results from the use of Peruna
write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a
full statement of your case and he will be
pleased to give you his valuable alvl;
gratis.

Hartman Sanitarium. Columbus. Ohio.
